12 Types of Children in Ancient India
In Ancient India, 12 types of children were considered to be legal heir of his father. All of them need not be biological children of their legal father.
Manu Smriti and other dharma sastras describe 12 different ways a child can become legal heir of someone.
12 Types of Children in Manu Smriti
When a husband dies childless or is husband is either incapable of fatherhood, wife can opt for a method called 'Niyoga'.
She can request for appointment of a person for helping her bear a child. The man who was appointed must be or would most likely be a revered person. There were various clauses associated with this process, as follows:
1. The woman would agree to this only for the sake of rightfully having a child and not for pleasure.
2. The child, thus born would be considered the child of the husband-wife and not that of the appointed man.
3. The appointed man would not seek any paternal relationship or attachment to this child in the future.
4. To avoid misuse, a man was allowed a maximum of three times in his lifetime to be appointed in such a way.
5. The act will be seen as that of Dharma and while doing so, the man and the wife will have only Dharma in their mind and not passion nor lust. The man will do it as a help to the woman in the name of God, whereas the woman will accept it only to bear the child for herself and her husband.
In niyoga, the bodies were to be covered with ghee (so that lust may not take root in the minds of the participants but the actual act may take place for conception).
In Mahabharata, queen Satyavati compels her first son and sage Vyasa to perform niyoga with the widows of her third son Vichitravirya. The widows Ambika and Ambalika and one of their maids bear Dhritarashtra, Pandu and Vidura respectively.
Manu Smriti describes the child born by niyoga as a kshetraja child of the husband-wife.
12 Types of Children (Legal Heir) in Ancient India
 - Aurasa : Biological son through wife in a normal marriage, where son carries father's Y-Chromosome.
 - Putrikaputra : When there is no son, girl is treated as son and her son becomes legal heir (ex : Babruvahana, born to Arjuna and Chitrangada, but became legal heir of his maternal-grandfather.)
 - Kshetraja : Wife's womb but husband is not biological father. (ex: Kunti, Madri giving birth to pandavas). This can happen even after husband's death and still the children born will be treated as deceased father's heir
 - Dattaka : Adopted through legal method or vedic ritual.
 - Kritima : A child is nourished and brough up as a son, but no adoption rituals performed. Child grows up and assumes you as parent.
 - Gudhaja : Wife's secret son, without husband's knowledge. This child also is heir of father. Only difference with Kshetraja is, husband's approval or knowledge.
 - Apaviddha : Rejected child of some parent, but grew up with others. This child can claim property of person who nourished him, but cannot do pind-daan or death rituals to ancestors of that family (example : Karna did not or could not do pind-daan to ancestors of the adhirtha-radha)
 - Kanina : Son born to a lady before her marriage. But he becomes legal heir of his mother's future husband. (ex : Karna would have inherited the throne of Hastinapur after the death of Pandu being his eldest son as per this law, but birth of Karna was kept secret by Kunti and she revealed the truth only after the death of Karna. )
 - Sahodha : A son is brought along with the marriage. If a woman was pregnant at the time of her marriage, the son born to her after her marriage was deemed to be the son of the man who married her, even though the biological father was a different man.
 - Krita : He is a purchased son.
 - Paunarbhava : The son of a virgin widow. She after her marriage became a 'Punarbhu' ( married second time). Such marriages happened when husband dies during or immediately after marriage and wife is still a virgin. She can re-marry a person of her choice, but a son born from that marriage belongs to the family of 1st deceased husband. She can claim rights only from 2nd kid and so on..
 - Swayamdatta :Self Offered son' – When an orphaned boy went to some person and offered himself to be his son and the latter accepted his offer, the boy in such a case was called Swayamdatta.
Out of above 12, only 3 : Aurasa, Putrikaputra, Paunarbhava were entitled for full property of father and also his family's property (inherited from ancestors).
2 more : Kanina and Sahodha were also given rights to ancestral property, only if their biological father married their mother at a later stage.
Other 7 : Kshetraja, Dattaka, Kritima, Gudhaja, Apaviddha, Krita, Swayamdatta were entitled to claim only what was earned by their (social) father or his part of ancestral property, but not the entire family property. However, they can carry the surname, gotra etc.

Vocational education and training in Romania
Short description
This short description contributes to better understanding of vocational education and training (VET) in Romania by providing an insight into its main features and highlighting system developments and current challenges.
Romanian VET offers diverse paths for learners. It comprises professional and technological programmes, regularly updated to combat low participation in lifelong learning and early leaving from education and training.
As many EU countries, Romania has an ageing population. This has an impact on VET, with an 8.5% decrease in the number of VET upper secondary schools since 2012/13. Efforts are being made to increase student participation, enable access to VET, and improve its quality and its relevance to the labour market. Recent system developments include the introduction of a dual VET form: it complements the work-based learning tradition in school-based programmes and aims at making VET a more attractive option for learners, while adapting training better to employer needs.

text: Initial position and magnet polarity estimation is required for smooth start-up of permanent magnet synchronous machines. The signal-to-noise ratio of the salient signals used for initial position and magnet polarity estimation depends on the machine design and affects the overall performance of the estimation technique. This paper investigates the design of a ring-magnet, surface permanent magnet synchronous machine to maximize the signal-to-noise ratio of the position and polarity signals without compromising the machine performance. Since the rotor geometry is fixed given the ring-magnet, the effect of the stator tooth tip geometry on the saliency signals is evaluated using finite element analysis. By adding a bridge between the stator teeth, the magnitude of the polarity-based signal can be increased significantly. A coupled simulation verifies the implementation of the improved initial position and magnet polarity estimation based on modified machine design.

text: In this paper, a new algorithm based on Meshless Local Petrov-Galerking (MLPG) method is presented for analyzing the crack dynamic propagation. A new modified Moving Least Squares approximation is proposed to simplify the treatment of essential boundary conditions. Explicit central difference with lumped mass matrix is adopted for the time integral. Visibility criterion with crack edge node adding technique and the maximum hoop stress criterion are used to describe the crack propagation and forecast the crack propagation direction. Based on this algorithm, three-point bend specimen for impact fracture test is investigated. Comparing the results with those obtained by the laser caustic method and high-speed photographs, the accuracy of the present algorithm is proved.

Mottainai (もったいない, [mottainai]) is a Japanese term conveying a sense of regret concerning waste. The expression "Mottainai!" can be uttered alone as an exclamation when something useful, such as food or time, is wasted, meaning roughly "what a waste!" In addition to its primary sense of "wasteful", the word is also used to mean "impious; irreverent" or "more than one deserves".
Usage in Japanese
Mottainai in Japanese refers to more than just physical waste (resources). It is even used to refer to thought patterns that give rise to wasteful action. Grammatically, it can be used in Japanese as an exclamation ("mottainai!") or as an adjective phrase ("it feels mottainai"). There is no plural form. The collection of mottainai things could be called mottainai koto (もったいない事?).
In ancient Japanese, mottainai had various meanings, including a sense of gratitude mixed with shame for receiving greater favor from a superior than is properly merited by one's station in life.
Mottainai is a compound word, mottai+nai. Mottai (勿体?) refers to the intrinsic dignity or sacredness of a material entity, while nai (無い?) indicates an absence or lack (Mottai further consists of mochi (勿?), meaning "inevitable; unnecessary to discuss", and tai (体?), meaning "entity; body").
Mottai was originally used in the construction mottai-ga-aru (勿体が有る?, literally "having mottai"), which referred to a dignified entity. Today, mottai is also used in the construction mottai-buru (勿体振る?), meaning "pretentious" or "giving oneself airs" by assuming more dignity than one truly possesses.
Buddhists traditionally used the term mottainai to indicate regret at the waste or misuse of something sacred or highly respected, such as religious objects or teaching. Today, the word is widely used in everyday life to indicate the waste of any material object, time, or other resource. Compare also the concept of tsukumogami "artifact spirit", which are said to live in old objects that have gained self-awareness and are angered if the object is thrown away wastefully.
Use by Wangari Maathai
Kenyan environmentalist Wangari Maathai visited Japan in 2005 for a government and media-sponsored event related to the Kyoto Protocol. She was given a tee-shirt with the word "mottainai" on it, which she later wore on appearances on Japanese TV.

- Simple living
- Daijirin Japanese dictionary 2nd ed. (Japanese)
- Masuda, K: Kenkyusha's New Japanese-English Dictionary, page 1139. Kenkyusha Ltd., 1974
- This early use of the word appears in a story about Yoshitsune in the Battle of Yashima. On horseback, Yoshitsune dropped his bow into the sea. A vassal cried out, "Don't pick up the bow, let it be!" but he picked it up while being pursued by the enemy Taira clan. After the battle was over, the vassal used the word mottainai in admonishing Yoshitsune that he should have considered his own life more valuable than even a worthy bow. Yoshitsune retorted that if the enemy saw that inferior bow, it would have disgraced the Genji clan.

Wiley Park Flower Delivery
Send beautiful flowers and gifts to Wiley Park. Whether for birthdays, mothers day, valentines day or any other occasion, we can deliver to Wiley Park. Check out our gorgeous creations today.
Wiley Park Name Origin
Wiley Park is named after John Wiley, who bequeathed land for the park to the former Canterbury Council when he died in 1895.
Wiley Park Settlement History
Settlement of the area dates from 1832 when the first land grant was made, with development primarily from the 1940s and 1950s. The park bequeathed by John Wiley to the Council in 1895 was progressively developed through the 1920s and 1930s, and has more recently been redeveloped as a passive recreation area with a pond and amphitheatre. The population fluctuated slightly during the 1990s, and then increased slightly between 2001 and 2011 as new dwellings were added to the area.
Wiley Park Features
Major features of the area include Wiley Park, Defoe Street Reserve, Johnsen Square, the Wiley Park railway station and several schools.


Working with Reflex files
Writing reflexes requires a few tools. You'll need access to your favorite text editor, and the programs provided in the BrainStem support download. These tools include:
 - arc - The reflex language compiler
 - Python - The BrainStem python library can now load and unload reflex files.
The BrainStem support download can be obtained from the download page on the acroname website.
A Note about Directories
Acroname prefers to distribute a set of directories you can place anywhere on your system rather than rely on platform specific installation routines, and default program locations.
The BrainStem Support download includes the following directories:
 - acroname - Top level folder
 - bin - Executable apps and libraries
 - development - Examples and API libraries (Python and C++)
 - aInclude - Header files for reflexes
Arc the Acroname Reflex Compiler
Arc can be run from the command line. It will compile reflex source files from within the bin folder or from a relative file path (absolute paths will not work). The reflex files will be compiled into map files and placed into the local directory. Map files, which are binary byte code files are executed by the Reflex Virtual Machine on BrainStem modules.
$>./arc -h
This will print information about using the arc compiler. Arc has a couple of useful flags useful for working with reflex file output, but first let us look at the basic command line for compiling reflex files.
$>./arc ../development/reflex_examples/Blink_LED.reflex
This will read in the Blink_LED.reflex source file located in the development/reflex_examples folder, and produce the compiled result at bin/Blink_LED.map.
$>./arc -p ../development/reflex_examples/Blink_LED.reflex
This will read in the Blink_LED.reflex source file in the development/reflex_examples directory, and output the resulting tokenized output of the lexer portion of the compilation process.
$>./arc -a ../development/reflex_examples/Blink_LED.reflex
This will read in the Blink_LED.reflex source file located in the development/reflex_examples folder, and will output the AST for the reflex.
$>./arc -d Blink_LED.map
This will read in the compiled Blink_LED.map binary located in the bin folder, and will generate a .dsm human readable disassembly file in the bin directory. See Appendix IV: Reflex map file Disassembly for more information about understanding the format of the disassembly.
Loading reflex .map files with ReflexLoader
ReflexLoader is our new Command Line Interface (CLI) tool for loading .map files into any BrainStem device. It can be found in the BrainStem development kit under the bin folder.
$>./ReflexLoader -H
This will print the usage information for ReflexLoader. If you are having trouble getting something to work this is one of the best places to look for more information. One thing that is important to make note of is that specifying a device '-d' is required. Additionally, that means that you must also have a device (SN), store and slot specified. Failure to do so will cause the program to return an error. With that said a command is also required if you were wanting the program to actually do something; however, failure to include one will not cause an error.
$>./ReflexLoader -L -i /location/of/file.map -d 0x40F5849A INTERNAL 0
This command will load '-L' the input file '-i' /location/of/file.map to the device '-d' into the INTERNAL store at slot 0.
Unloading a slot is just as easy but instead of using the '-L' and '-i' you would use '-U' and '-o' to specify where you would like the file to go. ReflexLoader will not create any file paths that do not exist so you must give a valid path.
$>./ReflexLoader -E -d 0x40F5849A RAM 0
This command will enable '-E' the reflex that is loaded into the RAM store at slot 0 in the specified device 0x40F5849A. Keep in mind that although you can load a reflex into RAM it will not survive a power cycle as it is volatile memory.
To disable this slot just swap the '-E' for '-D'
$>./ReflexLoader -B -d 0x40F5849A INTERNAL 0
This last command will make a slot bootable. Once this has been set and a power cycle occurs the BrainStem device will automatically enable the reflex at the designated slot. In order to disable a boot slot you will need to replace the slot parameter '0' in this case with 255.
Loading reflex .map files with Python
The BrainStem python library can be used to load compiled map files onto BrainStem modules. To load .map files with python you will need to follow the installation instructions of the getting started guide in the Python section of this reference.
To load a reflex map file into a slot on your brainstem module. First compile the reflex with arc. The resulting map file can be found in your aObject directory. Then start the python interpreter, and import the brainstem package. Instantiate your module and connect. Once you're connected, the following code block will show you how to load, enable and disable the .map file.
>>> fh = open('path/to/map/mymap.map', 'rb')
>>> mapfile = fh.read()
>>> fh.close()
>>> stem.store[0].loadSlot(0, mapfile, len(mapfile)) #loads map into store 0 slot 0
0
>>> stem.store[0].slotEnable(0)
0
>>> stem.store[0].slotDisable(0)
The above code simply opens the map file for reading in binary mode, reads the contents of the file into the mapfile variable, loads that data into store 0 slot 0 and enables and disables the slot.
Boot Reflexes
You can also set your stem to enable the map file on boot. To do this you will need to load the map file into a slot on the internal store of your module (the internal store is index 0). Then set the boot slot on the module by accessing the setBootSlot procedure of the system module
>>> stem.system.setBootSlot(0)
0
>>> stem.system.setBootSlot(255) # will disable the slot from being enabled on boot.
If you do not have python installed on your system, you can also use the aConsole utility to load .map files.


Where Can CVS Expand New Stores?
Stephen Kita
Posted on Aug 3, 2020
For this project, CVS location and US population data were analyzed to suggest where CVS should consider opening new stores.
CVS pharmacy is the largest pharmacies in the United Sates, with almost 10,000 locations as of August, 2020. Last year they reported $256B in revenue, and were listed as #5 on the Fortune 500 list.
According to CVS's SEC filing, their major sources of income are pharmacy and in-store sales. In addition, the majority of the pharmacy sales are within network, as opposed to online or mail-order. Therefore, the vast majority of revenue for CVS comes from people physically walking into the store.
If CVS wants to continue growing, the easiest way seems to be opening new stores. However, CVS is challenged to open new stores, because they already operate in so many locations. Therefore, CVS should target areas with higher demand when opening stores.
Data Collection
In this project, the location and count of every CVS store in the United States were scraped from the CVS website1. Store location data was collect and processed with the Python BeautifulSoup package.
Population data was downloaded from the US Census website, and population estimates for 2019 we used for all states (including District of Columbia and Puerto Rico) and for all cities > 50,000 residents.
These two datasets were combined using Python Pandas to generate a data frame of CVS location by state and city population:
Data Analysis
This data was graphed using Python Matplotlib to show the number of stores per capita. A linear trendline was calculated, and the slope was approximately 1 CVS store per 33,000 people. This trend was the same for both cities and states.
These states/cities can be grouped by whether they fall above or below the trendline (average number of stores per capita). The regions in green are where there are more than 33,000 stores per person, and the regions in red are where there are less.
Using this framework, we can assume that locations with below average CVS counts have a higher demand for new CVS stores. We can also rank the highest and lowest locations based on demand by population:
We can see that states like Washington and Colorado have a higher demand while states like Florida and Massachusetts have a lower demand. This could be do to the difference in ages between the states. Florida and Massachusetts have older populations, who would need more prescriptions than younger populations.
Looking at the cities, New York City and Los Angeles have a higher demand while Miami and Washington DC have a lower demand. This could be due to the high cost of real estate in NYC and LA, where the operating costs might hurt the profitability of a store.
We can cross-reference the city and state information to form a strategy about where CVS should expand.
If a state has a high demand for CVS and also has cities with a high demand, then CVS should make a larger presence in those cities. However, if a state has a high demand for CVS, but low demand in cities, then CVS should try expanding to new cities in that state.
In conclusion, if CVS wants to continue adding new stores, they could focus on expanding their presence in these cities where demand is high:
 - Seattle, WA
 - Denver, CO
 - Portland, OR
 - San Juan, PR
Alternatively, they could add stores in these states where demand is high by expanding to new towns:
 - Wisconsin
 - Arkansas
 - Utah
 - Iowa
Future Work
This analysis could be expanded by adding more demographic data, such as age and income levels, to better predict where a store would be profitable. In addition, competitor data from walgreens, walmart, rite aid, etc. could be scraped from the web to look for areas with less competition.
1 Data was scraped from the CVS Store Locator online. The CVS robots.txt file was reviewed beforehand and the store locator pages were allowed.

html-to-xlsx. data-cell-type="text"
 - I need to specify the cell value, that starts from equal sign like "={{My_meta_tag}}. The problem is that cell type is not string. The user gets an error, when trying to edit this cell. The user has to select the celltype manually before editing. How can i set up data-cell-type to string?
 - Hi,
 thank you for the question.
 Hopefully, it should be possible to escape the =, probably using single quotation '=.
 We take a look at why it doesn't work in html-to-xlsx and come back to you.
 - ok. Thank you. Looking forward.
 - administrators
 _USER_ turn out this is already supported, just that there is no special cell type for it, it is just a matter of changing the format of the cell, the format for "Text" is @ so you can apply it like this:
 data-cell-format-str="@" or using the enum data-cell-format-enum="49"
 i agree that this is not clear, so we will change the format docs to add a mention the equivalent to the "Text" format.
 - Thanks. It works

Trust transfer is a promising perspective on prevalent discussions about trust in AI-capable technologies. However, the convergence of AI with other technologies challenges existing theoretical assumptions. First, it remains unanswered whether both trust in AI and the base technology is necessary for trust transfer. Second, a nuanced view on trust sources is needed, considering the dual role of trust. To address these issues, we examine whether trust in providers and trust in technologies are necessary trust conditions. We conducted a survey with 432 participants in the context of autonomous vehicles and applied necessary condition analysis. Our results indicate that trust in AI technology and vehicle technology are necessary sources. In contrast, only vehicle providers represent a necessary source. We contribute to research by providing a novel perspective on trust in AI, applying a promising data analysis method to reveal necessary trust sources, and consider duality of trust in trust transfer.

9. Calculating the Compensation Reduction Amount (CRA) when compensation is fixed by a non-consent judgment, consent judgement, or settlement and the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) component is objectively identifiable
Where compensation is received under a non-consent judgement, consent judgement or settlement and the NDIS component is fixed, or is objectively identifiable , the approved CRA will be calculated in accordance with rules 3.11-3.12 of the National Disability Insurance Scheme (Supports for Participants – Accounting for Compensation) Rules 2013) (Compensation Rules) (also see rules 3.5 and 3.6).
9.1 Steps for calculating the CRA where the NDIS component is fixed by a non-consent judgement, consent judgement or settlement, or is objectively identifiable
To calculate the compensation reduction amount in accordance with rules 3.11-3.12 of the Compensation Rules, the NDIA will:
Step 1 – Rule 3.11(a) of the Compensation Rules
Identify the NDIS component of the compensation.
The NDIS component will be identified as follows:
- if the component is specified in a non-consent judgement – that amount;
- if the component is not specified in a non-consent judgement but the NDIA is satisfied a specified amount was paid to ensure the provisions of periodic payments – for example because benefits under a Commonwealth, State or Territory scheme of insurance are commutated, that amount (rule 3.3);
- otherwise – the value of the periodic payments as assessed in accordance with accepted actuarial standards, in consultation with the scheme actuary (rule 3.3).
Step 2 – Rule 3.11(b) of the Compensation Rules
Subtract an amount equivalent to the total of the amounts paid by the participant for supports of a kind funded under the NDIS, between the date of the non-consent judgement, consent judgement or settlement and the date before the person became a participant.
This step recognises a person may have used their compensation to pay for the kind of supports the NDIS may fund, prior to becoming a participant. By reducing the CRA to account for those amounts paid, the NDIA ensures participants are not disadvantaged by having used their compensation in this way. For more information on the kinds of supports funded under the NDIS see NDIS Price Guides.
Step 3 – Rule 3.11(c) of the Compensation Rules
Subtract the amount of any reduction in the participant's funding that has occurred previously in respect of the non-consent judgement, consent judgement or settlement.
A participant may have had previous reductions in funding applied to their statement of participant supports (see section 33(2) of the National Disability Insurance Scheme Act 2013 (NDIS Act) in respect of compensation paid under the non-consent judgement, consent judgement or settlement.
Each time the participant's plan is reviewed, the new plan will take into account earlier CRAs calculated to prevent double reductions.
The amount remaining after steps 1 – 3, is the compensation reduction amount.
9.2 Example calculation
- On 1 December 2017, a person receives $1,000,000 under a non-consent judgement.
- The non-consent judgement identifies the NDIS component as $300,000.
- On 1 December 2018 the person becomes a participant in the NDIS.
- Between 1 December 2017 and 30 November 2018, the participant paid $25,000 for supports of a kind funded under the NDIS.
The compensation reduction amount is calculated as follows:
- Identify the NDIS component of the amount of compensation: $300,000
- Subtract the amount paid to the participant for supports of a kind funded under the NDIS, between the date of the non-consent judgement (or settlement) and the date before the person became a participant: $25,000
- There has been no previous reduction of funding to their statement of participant supports in relation to the CRA calculated from the non-consent judgement. This means no subtraction is made under Rule 3.11(c) of the Compensation Rules.
The compensation reduction amount is $275,000.
9.3 Compensation reduction amount reduced to nil
If a compensation reduction amount is reduced to nil, there will be no reduction to the statement of participant supports (see rule 3.12).
For more information see What happens if compensation reduction amount is reduced to nil.

If pixels are missing from your photos, follow the advice below.
If this is the case, the first thing you should do is try and clean your camera.
It's important to remember the following thing when cleaning your Nintendo DS:
1. Do not use any type of solvent to clean it.
2. Do not pour water directly onto your system.
3. Never place your system in liquid of any kind.
1. Slightly dampen the corner of a cloth then lightly rub the lens of your camera to shift any stubborn dirt.
2. Using a dry corner of the same cloth, wipe away any other stains from the lens.
3. Wrap some tape around your fingers so that the sticky side is facing outwards. Then dab at the lens and repeat steps 1 & 2.
If you've cleaned your lens using the steps above and your photos are still missing pixels, it's likely there's a problem with your Nintendo DS.
You can book your Nintendo DS in for inspection by the Nintendo Customer Support Team.

SSTs can take several hours in many cases, but the current default value of TimeoutStartSec causes systemd to force the joiner node to timeout in about 90 seconds. It might make sense to disable systemd service's timeout by default instead.
Depending on the systemd version, disabling the startup timeout means setting either TimeoutStartSec=0 (if systemd version <=228) or TimeoutStartSec=infinity (if systemd version >=229).
In systemd 236 and later, the startup timeout can be extended by setting EXTEND_TIMEOUT_USEC:
If a service of Type=notify sends "EXTEND_TIMEOUT_USEC=…", this may cause the start time to be extended beyond TimeoutStartSec=. The first receipt of this message must occur before TimeoutStartSec= is exceeded, and once the start time has exended beyond TimeoutStartSec=, the service manager will allow the service to continue to start, provided the service repeats "EXTEND_TIMEOUT_USEC=…" within the interval specified until the service startup status is finished by "READY=1". (see sd_notify(3)).
It looks like this approach was used to extend the startup timeout during SSTs while fixing
MDEV-15607. It looks like this is the relevant commit:
The relevant service_manager_extend_timeout function seems to be defined here:
And it sets the EXTEND_TIMEOUT_USEC environment variable mentioned in the systemd manual.
However, a lot of users are still seeing startup timeouts during SSTs. The cause seems to be that most systemd installations are not yet using version 236 or later.
The following documentation section that describes current behavior:


Why Does My Dog Like To Be The Little Spoon? + Dog Cuddling Position
Why Does My Dog Like To Be The Little Spoon
Featured Image. Reddit
As a proud dog owner, you'll know that one of the simple pleasures of life is getting to cuddle up with your beloved furry friend and take a nice long nap.
Dogs taking a nap is one of the most adorable things to witness although, it's quite common for you to notice your dog bundled up in a strange sleeping or cuddling position.
A very common cuddling position that your dog might choose is being the little spoon.
For most dog owners, this is quite a troubling cuddle position because they fear it might be an indication of an ailing dog.
But that's not true
Then what does it mean when your dog chooses to be the little spoon?
What Is The Little Spoon Means For Your Dog?
dog and baby sleeping
Image. Reddit
If you've ever been lying down on your bed and your dog lies down next to you to be the little spoon, you've probably thought there might be a problem.
Some dog owners have considered this to be extremely weird with theories of their dog being Ill or on heat.
This as we've already mentioned, is not true.
Humans like to cuddle up to people they feel comfortable and safe around because it makes them feel loved.
Your dog isn't so different.
If your dog enjoys being the little spoon, then you should feel honored because it's one of their ultimate ways of bonding.
When your dog does this, it means he trusts you and wants to be close to you.
Simply put, it's a way for them to be affectionate with either you or other pets.
Dog Cuddling/Sleeping Position And What They Mean
dog likes to be the little spoon
Image. Reddit
Spooning might be a cute albeit strange way that your dog might want to cuddle in, it certainly is not the only cuddling position or sleeping position out there.
There are several cuddling positions that you might have witnessed your dog scooching in to try with you.
Either another family member, a pet, or their favorite stuffed toy.
1. The side sleeper
This fun cuddle position can go in two ways.
It's either your dog takes the dominant position that is being the big spoon or they become the little spoon and you take the dominant position.
This is a good way to cozy up with your dog regardless of what position you're in.
It's super comfortable for your dog and both of you can drift off to sleep feeling protected and loved.
2. Donut position
Although the curled dog or donut position isn't exactly a cuddling position, much like the little spoon, you can use your body to form a protective layer over your dog.
The donut is so-called because your dog curls up into a ball with their legs kept very close and their nose sometimes touching their hind legs.
And in so doing, they sort of resemble a furry donut.
When they do this it's often as a way to make themselves feel safe and warm.
If you and your dog have already bonded and have a trusting relationship, you can drape an arm over them to make them feel even safer.
3. The blanket hog
In this position, your dog will burrow under the blankets to try and be close to you.
They may then proceed to lie down next to you in a face-to-face position or they'll be the little spoon or the big spoon.
Your dog may try to be a blanket hog to either get closer to you or because they want an extra layer of protection to feel safe.
4. Belly up position
Who hasn't seen those cute YouTube videos where the dog is sleeping with their tummies in the air chasing a dream rabbit?
If your dog is in this position, it means they feel safe and are at ease with their environment.
Apart from being super adorable, this sleeping position can also be beneficial to their health.
With their feet in the air, they can cool off and relax their limbs after a long day.

5. The shield
Who better to protect you than your trusted canine?
The shield is when your dog lies on top of your body and acts as sort of a barrier between you and the environment.
This might seem suffocating at first but they mean well.
It's their way of protecting their best friends and shielding them from any threats.
6. Back to back
Dogs sleep in this position in a similar way they might want to be in the spooning position, to get as close to you as they can.
To your dog just getting to fall asleep next to you is a delight in its own right.
By sleeping back to back with you, they're showing you love and offering you their human the ultimate protection.
7. Headlock
Remember how you used to put your favorite stuffed animal in a headlock as a kid, well it's similar but with less of a chokehold.
Ensure that you're gentle when holding your dog in this position to avoid hurting them.
This is a great cuddling position to show them love and affection plus it can be relaxing for you too.
8. The cradle
Dogs are pretty much big furry babies.
And you can treat them like so in the cradle position.
Maybe when you're taking a nap on the lounge you can hold them in your arms and drift off to sleep.
The cradle position is usually done with smaller dogs but that doesn't mean bigger dogs can't be part of the fun.
Just make sure the surface you're cuddling up on is strong enough and big enough for both of you.
Cuddling has numerous health benefits for both you and your pet.
It can lower stress levels and anxiety not to talk of all the endorphins that get released in the process.
Regularly cuddling your dog can make them feel safe and loved plus it's a bonding experience for both of you.
So get a blanket and bundle up with your canine friend today and let the bonding commence.

Hi,
In spectrum analysis, it's quite fastidious to extract forces and moments reactions.
I would like to automate this.
For the moment, I add APDL script for extracting these data (with ETABLE ou FSUM commands).
Now, I would like to export these data in a more convinient form, in a csv file with 5 columns :
Name | Fx | Fy | Fz | Mx | My | Mz
Name : names of my joints
F and M : reaction forces and moments of my joints
I was thinking of a script like this :
1- Created empty lists
2- Loop over joints
2.1- Extract joint name
2.2- Extract reaction force and moment
2.3- Fill the lists
3- Export data in a csv file.
(But I am open for other method and tools)
I have no problem for step : 1, 2.3 and 3.
However, I can't find a solution for steps : 2.1 and 2.2.
My questions are :
1- How to extract names of all my joints ?
2- How can I extract force and moment reaction of my joints ?
Thanks for your help,
Regards,
Jean

In electric power system, disturbance detection has become an important part of grid operation and refers to the detection of a voltage and current excursion caused by the wide variety of electromagnetic phenomena. This paper proposes a computationally efficient and robust algorithm for synchronized measurement technology (SMT) supported online disturbance detection, suitable for AC and HVDC grids. The proposed algorithm is based on the robust median absolute deviation sample dispersion measure to locate dataset outliers. The algorithm is capable of identifying the disturbance occurrence and clearance measurement sample based on the dynamic criteria, driven by present power system conditions. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified by real-time simulations using a cyber-physical simulation platform, as a co-simulation between the SMT supported electric power system model and underlying ICT infrastructure. The presented results demonstrate effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, making it suitable for an AC and HVDC online disturbance detection application or as a pre-step of backup protection schemes.

Projecting meaning
Projecting meaning into Chinese characters
Chinese characters look complicated, but they're mostly made up of smaller simpler characters.
I love learning these because every character is like a tiny poem.
language = words 讠+ five 五+ mouth 口
So a language is words that five mouths speak? Brilliant!
thanks = words 讠+ body 身+ inch 寸
Hmmm... so.... when you say thanks, you speak words that give a body an inch of space? Interesting.
name = evening 夕 + mouth 口
So your real name is what's spoken by a mouth in the evening? That's kind of romantic.
They're so vivid. I try to imagine the historical or cultural meaning behind each one.
Projecting meaning into Talking Heads lyrics
Talking Heads were a great band from the late-70s to mid-80s. Their lyrics were really evocative and mysterious. Specific but vague. Made you wonder what they were really about.
Here's an example:
Watch out - you might get what you're after
Cool babies - strange but not a stranger
I'm an ordinary guy
Burning down the house
Everything's stuck together
I don't know what you expect staring into the TV set
Fighting fire with fire
All wet - hey you might need a raincoat
Shakedown - dreams walking in broad daylight
Three hundred sixty five degrees
Burning down the house
I read an interview with David Byrne from the Talking Heads who said that many of their lyrics were just random. Literally!
They would write evocative phrases onto little pieces of paper, then throw them into a bowl, and shuffle them up. Then they'd pull them out in random order, and put them into the song in that order. They did this because they liked how the listener creates meaning that wasn't intended.
Hearing one phrase next to another makes you assume they're connected in a meaningful way. But nope. It was just random. You made that meaning yourself.
Back to Chinese.
I have a Chinese dictionary called Wenlin that tells the history behind every character.
I looked up,, and the rest, and found that those characters are just phonetic. Those composite character bits were not chosen for their meaning, just their sound.
So... it seems I've just been putting the meanings into them, myself. They actually had no meaning.
But even knowing that, I choose to keep doing it. It's poetic. It's beautiful.
Projecting meaning into everything?
How many other things in life really have no meaning?
She was born April 12. He was born September 22. What does it mean?
One day you ride your bike instead of taking the bus. That day your usual bus gets into a big accident. What does it mean?
Black cat crosses your path as you walk under a ladder on Friday the 13th. What does it mean?
Nothing at all.
Nothing has inherent meaning. It is what it is and that's it.
We just choose to project meaning onto things. It feels good.
Even if presented with proof that it's totally random or neutral, we decide it has meaning anyway. It makes life more poetic and beautiful.
(And what if you've projected some bad meaning onto something, and it's getting you down? Don't forget that none of it is true. You're the one that put the meaning into it. You can just as easily take all the meaning out of it.)

Dr. Scott Publishes in Toxicology Journal on Abuse of Drugs Among Prisoners in Scotland
Headshot of Dr. Karen Scott
Dr. Karen Scott, director and associate professor of Forensic Science, published an article in the March 2020 issue of the Oxford University Press' Journal of Analytical Toxicology titled, "An Insight into Gabapentin and Pregabalin in Scottish Prisoners."
The article was based on a study done with Dr. Scott's University of Glasgow doctorate student Shaza Deeb in collaboration with the University of Glasgow and Scottish Prison Services. The study's purpose was to evaluate the prevalence and potential abuse of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) among prisoners in Scotland.
The study found a high prevalence of AEDs in the Scottish prison system, primarily due to the drugs Gabapentin and Pregabalin. However, due to anonymous sample collection they were unable to determine if these drugs had been prescribed or acquired illicitly.
The Journal of Analytical Toxicology is an international toxicology journal published by the Oxford University Press, which is devoted to the study of potentially toxic substances as well as drug identification and research.

NEW HANOVER COUNTY, NC – Following a review of submitted proposals by community partners, New Hanover County has awarded $990,000 to six local programs aimed at addressing needs related to mental health and substance use disorders. This funding is part of the county's $6.8 million in budgeted spending for the current fiscal year to increase capacity in addressing community needs in this area.
Funding for these programs comes from the national Opioid Settlement Funds and the county's Mental Health and Substance Use Disorder Fund. The funds for these six programs will be used to support housing services, treatment, community outreach, and employment services to citizens dealing with mental health and substance use disorder issues.
"Today marks a significant step for our community as we provide the first round of funding as part of a yearly cycle that will create opportunities for our neighbors to get the help they need," said Bill Rivenbark, Chair of the New Hanover County Board of Commissioners. "We are continuing to use our county's Mental Health and Substance Use Disorder Strategy to guide decisions on how we allocate funds and are diligently working to enhance local service in these critical areas for the safety and well-being of our citizens."
This funding is part of the county's overall Mental Health and Substance Use Disorder Strategy Program, which was approved by the Board of County Commissioners in September 2022 to address the mental health and substance abuse crises being experienced in the community. To date, approximately $21.5 million has been budgeted over the next five years to support enhanced services and increased capacity.
The source of funds available to implement this strategy comes from the county's $50 million Mental Health and Substance Use Disorder Fund, which was created from the New Hanover Regional Medical Center to Novant Health, as well as funds from the national Opioid Settlements. The county expects to receive nearly $34 million in opioid settlement funds over the next 18 years.
In addition to the $990,000 in funding for programs being reported today, the county's $6.8 million budget for Fiscal Year 2023-2024 includes funding for a treatment facility, as well as funding for several other programs that focus on a combination of prevention, treatment and recovery.
Information related to the six programs awarded funding are as follows:
Supportive Housing Services - $500,000 Total
- LINC: $250,000 from the Mental Health Fund for 15 new beds for clients with mental health or substance use disorders.
- Tides: $95,000 from the Opioid Settlement Fund for Recovery Housing Support and a housing assistance program, benefiting 10 women who have graduated from the Tides program.
- Coastal Horizons: $155,000 from the Opioid Settlement Fund for expanding recovery housing and case management services for opioid use disorders.
Outpatient Treatment - $250,000 Total
- Coastal Horizons: $250,000, equally from the Mental Health Fund and Opioid Settlement Fund, to increase outpatient treatment for an additional 375 to 500 individuals annually in New Hanover County, with a focus on the uninsured or underinsured.
Community Outreach - $200,000 from the Mental Health Fund
- Coastal Horizons, New Hope CDC, and LINC: A total of $200,000 for enhancing peer support and community outreach services.
Employment Services - $40,000 from the Opioid Settlement Fund
- LINC: $40,000 to enhance employment boot camps, offering job placement and support services.

A discovery of ancient seeds is such a find. Archaeologists unearthed a clay pot in 2008 on the Menominee Reservation in Wisconsin, which doesn't seem like much of an earth-shattering discovery.
However, when they opened the pot, they discovered seeds — seeds that were determined to be a form of squash thought to have been extinct for 800 years.
The seeds seemed perfectly preserved in the clay pot.
Students in Winnipeg, Canada, didn't let the discovery end there. They decided to see what would happen if they planted the seeds. Surprisingly, from the seeds sprouted species of squash thought to be extinct.
The squash was named "Gete-okosomin," which means "big old squash" in Menominee.
And big it is. The largest squash grown from the batch of seeds measured 3 feet long and weighed in at 18 pounds, according to My Modern Met.
The students are working to cultivate the seeds so this plant won't become extinct again.
This is truly an amazing discovery because it sheds light on on our ancestors and how they lived.

How to prevent a different output from the Alteryx R tool
 - How-Tos FAQs

How to prevent a different output from the Alteryx R tool
In this article, we will discuss some of the leading causes of incorrect different output when you use Alteryx R Tool to sign an amazon HTTP request.
An incorrect output can result from many things, including wrong field conversion, connection error, wrong entry/input and much more.
We will use the HMAC function included in the digest package and a text input tool that includes the key and a date stamp to sign an amazon HTTP request.
Key= "foo"
datastamp= "20120215"
When we run our first script below:
the.data <- read.Alteryx("1", mode-"data.frame")
write.Alteryx(base64encode(hmac(the.data$key,the.data$datestamp,algo="sha256",raw = TRUE)),1
We get an incorrect result as compared to when we run the following:
write.Alteryx(base64encode(hmac("foo","20120215",algo-"sha256",raw = TRUE)),1)

The difference being when we hardcode the values for the key and object, we get the correct result. But if we use the variables from the R data frame, we get incorrect output.
Alteryx can READ data as a data frame or as a list. While many common Alteryx R Tool issues arise from trying to read/write objects of the incorrect class, this may or may not cause the incorrect output.
Let's delve into the possible leading causes of our incorrect output. Firstly, let's understand if the DATA FRAME could have altered the data.
Does the data frame alter the data in some way?
How to prevent a different output from the Alteryx R tool
As a recommended practice, you should use the data.frame() R function to convert the data to a data frame before using the write.Alteryx() function.
Alteryx will attempt to transform data to a data frame if one has not already been converted; however, this conversion may not go as planned and result in inaccurate output.
You can also use the class() function to check whether your variable is a data frame.
> x
SN AGE Name
1 1 21 John
2 2 15 Dora
> typeof(x) # data frame is a special case of list
[1] "list"
> class(x)
[1] "data.frame"
The difference in the text input
The incorrect output can again result from the difference in the text input; 'datastamp' or 'datestamp'? It should be 'datestamp.'
How to prevent a different output from the Alteryx R tool
If the column title in the text input tool is 'datastamp' but not 'datestamp';
Then the "datestamp" in this script will give incorrect output as it is not detected.
How to prevent a different output from the Alteryx R tool
Conversion error
Lastly, the incorrect output can also result from one of these variables not being detected by the R Tool.
How to prevent a different output from the Alteryx R tool
If this is the case, it can be the "date stamp" with the problem. Often in R, you have to specify the date class.
as.Date(variable,"%m/%d/%Y")
But Alteryx will take a different format:
as.Date(variable,"%Y-%m-%d")
If a Date value is not in this format, Alteryx reads it as a string, which can sometimes give incorrect output. Always specify the date class or use the DateTimeParse function in the expression editor to convert the column into date format.
The answers in this brief guide provided a solution to the error.

How to Monkey Patch when using Flex RSLs
Monkey patchers run into problems when using Flex RSLs. In this post I'll explain why monkey patching does not work when using RSLs and provide details of how to make it work. I'll monkey patch the mx.controls.Button class in this post and ListCollectionView and Spark Button in later posts.
Why doesn't monkey patching work when using RSLs? To answer this question it is important to understand two things:
 1. The Flash Player has a first-in-wins rule when loading classes.
 2. Flex applications contain two frames. The first frame contains few classes and loads the RSLs. The second frame contains the rest of the application's classes.
Say you've monkey patched mx.controls.Button, which will end up in frame 2 of your application. In frame 1 of the application, the framework RSL will be loaded which contains the mx.controls.Button class. When frame 2 of the application loads the monkey patched version of mx.controls.Button is ignored because of the Flash Player first-in-wins rule.
When you monkey patch a class that is in frame 1, then you are done, you don't need an RSL.
The basic steps I'll use to monkey patch are:
 1. Create an RSL with just the monkey-patched file and its inheritance dependencies.
 2. Add your RSL to the configuration to get it loaded.
To demonstrate the process I created a project with a simple application that contains one button.
The project was developed using a pre-release version of Flex4, build
Create an RSL
My modification of Button is just a change to set label() so I can see if a Button in my application is a real or patched Button. When the Button's label setter is called I just prepend "Monkey patched " to the original value.
_label = "Monkey patched " + value;
I started by adding to my source tree using the same package as Flex, "mx.controls". Next compile your source into an RSL. From the command line it will look something like this:
>compc -directory -output=button -link-report=link.rpt -include-classes=mx.controls.Button -source-path=.
>optimizer button/library.swf –output -button.swf
>digest button.swf -swc-path=button
After running these commands the size of button.swf is 143,596 bytes. Looking at the link report, there are a lot of classes besides mx.controls.Button that we don't need. Ideally, all we want in the RSL is mx.controls.Button. But the Flash Player requires classes that Button extends or implements to be defined when the Button class is loaded. Since we are loading this RSL before the framework RSL, we need to also include the classes Button extends and implements in framework.swc. For each additional class we include, we also need to include the classes it extends and implements.
Take the link report from the first compile of Button and copy it to a file we will use as our externs file. The externs file is what we will use to remove classes we don't want in the RSL. I actually seeded my externs.xml file by copying and pasting the script children from framework.swc's catalog. My thinking was that I wanted to exclude everything in framework.swc except Button and the classes it extends or implements. But now I can see that the externs file is much larger than it would have been if I had just started with the initial link report.
Next edit the externs file by removing the script elements for mx.controls.Button and all of its inheritance dependencies. After recompiling I was able to get the RSL size down to 35,152 bytes. That is still pretty big but it's the best we can do because we need UIComponent and UICompoment is big. When monkey patching spark components we will be able to remove UIComponent and get a much smaller RSL.
Add your RSL to the configuration
Now that you have your RSL, you just need to add it to the RSL configuration. I created a local configuration file, main-config.xml, with the RSLs I wanted. You can start by copying the elements from flex-config.xml to your local configuration file. Then add the entry for your RSL before the framework RSL.
The order of the runtime-shared-library-path options is important because it determines the load order of the RSLs. The RSL URLs in my configuration file are all local SWF files so before running the application I will copy the RSLs from my SDK frameworks/RSLs directory to where my application lives.
When the new RSL is loaded for the first time you will mostly encounter verify errors because you missed removing an interface from the externs file. As you encounter a verify error, remove that class from the externs file and try again. Eventually the RSL will contain all the classes it needs and load without errors.
Finally, run the application to verify the monkey patched Button is being used.

In the Player's Handbook, it is pretty clear that reactions normally interrupt the thing that they are reacting to.
Xanathar's Guide to Everything, however, has explicitly changed all reactions to occurring after their triggers have finished resolving unless the ability specifies otherwise, and is reliant on that implicit assumption for several reaction abilities already.
This leads to contradictory interpretations of reactions that take implicit timing. How should this be resolved?
I'm particularly interested in how to resolve this in Adventurers League games, where players show up with perfectly legal characters reasonably expecting their abilities to work either way on account of owning or not owning XGE.
Reactions come after their triggers, except when they don't
If the timing is specified in the ability, use that timing. Otherwise, reactions occur after the trigger.
This entire thing is a matter of specific over general. In 5e, when a specific rule and a general rule conflict, the specific rule wins.
Xanathar's Guide to Everything outlines the general rule for the timing of reactions:
If you're unsure when a reaction occurs in relation to its trigger, here's the rule: the reaction happens after its trigger completes, unless the description of the reaction explicitly says otherwise.
So, if the timing of the spell/ability you are using does not specify a timing then the reaction will come after whatever triggered it.
This is essentially just rephrasing what was already in the DMG since its release:
Various spells and features give a creature more reaction options, and sometimes the timing of a reaction can be difficult to adjudicate. Use this rule of thumb: follow whatever timing is specified in the reaction's description. For example, the opportunity attack and the shield spell are clear about the fact that they can interrupt their triggers. If a reaction has no timing specified, or the timing is unclear, the reaction occurs after its trigger finishes, as in the Ready action. (D&DB)
Thus, nothing has changed in the way reactions are handled since the DMG was released. Even with the rule being in the DMG and XGtE, you may (and probably will) still meet players who misunderstand how reaction timing works. There is not too much you can do to prevent this, but having a thorough understanding of the basics yourself will allow you to talk them through the issues with confidence that you are correct. Thus, I have prepared an extensive analysis below to hopefully help you accomplish this.
Dealing with Adventurers League and false expectations
Firstly, it is simply a fact that a DM is going to have to teach/correct that players that don't know or misunderstand the rules. It is one of the DM's primary jobs. There is not much you can do at the table to fix a character built on a misunderstanding of a rule whether it was based on not owning a particular reference material or not.
So how do you deal with it when it comes up? Well, as an AL DM, you are bound to follow the rules as written for all cases in which the rules are clear. However, if there was a case of a reaction ability that you found unclear lean on the general rule. If the ability is unclear then just assume it comes after the trigger. If assuming this seems to break the ability or make it useless then it is probably incorrect. In short, either go with the reaction happening after the trigger or go with what allows the ability to work.
Reaction spells
Below, I go through every currently published spell with a casting time of reaction and show how it either follows or is an exception to the general rule above. Remember, each one of these spells is analyzed using this same rule. As long as you understand it, there should be minimal issues with adjudicating most reaction timing abilities.
Shield - interrupts trigger
Trigger: when you are hit by an attack or targeted by the magic missile spell.
So, shield explicitly says that it takes effect before the triggering attack resolves (and before the triggering magic missile spell hits). That means it is an exception and may take effect before the triggering effect resolves. This is an exception to the general rule because it's timing is specified by its effects.
The DMG also explicitly says that shield interrupts its trigger:
See this Q&A for more on the timing of shield: Do you have to cast Shield prior to your opponent's attack roll?
Absorb elements - interrupts trigger
Trigger: when you take you take acid, cold, fire, lightning, or thunder damage.
Again, the spell wording implies that it comes before the damage from the attack is resolved and thus it applies to the triggering attack as well. See this Q&A and this Crawford tweet for more.
Counterspell - interrupts trigger
Trigger: when you see a creature within 60 feet of you casting a spell.
Counterspell thus interrupts the spell being cast explicitly (also, if it did not it would literally be useless).
This post deals partially with the timing of counterspell: Can a readied spell be Counterspelled after it is cast, but before the trigger occurs?
Feather fall - interrupts trigger
Trigger: when you or a creature within 60 feet of you falls.
A falling creature's rate of descent slows to 60 feet per round until the spell ends.
The effect description says that it slows creatures that are in the process of falling. This means that it interrupts the falling and is thus another exception. Again this is also clear because if feather fall did not interrupt the falling creature's decent, it would be useless as the ground will have stopped the creature already with potentially deadly results.
Hellish Rebuke - occurs after trigger
Trigger: being damaged by a creature within 60 feet of you that you can see.
You point your finger, and the creature that damaged you is momentarily surrounded by hellish flames.
Hellish rebuke does specify timing, but it aligns with the normal rules of reactions. The trigger is being damaged and the reaction occurs after that damage is resolved. So, this spell is not an exception.
See here for further discussion: Hellish Rebuke reaction with zero hitpoints
Soul cage - occurs after trigger
Trigger: when a humanoid you can see within 60 feet of you dies.
This spell snatches the soul of a humanoid as it dies and traps it inside the tiny cage you use for the material component.
The trigger is a humanoid dying and the spell snatches the soul as soon as its death is complete. Thus, this reaction does not interrupt the trigger and happens after the trigger is resolved.
Non-spell reactions
I'll go over the two most commonly used non-spell reactions. There are many abilities and other effects that are reactions so it would be incredibly unwieldy to go through and analyze them all. However, knowing and understanding these two should cover a large portion of your reaction timing issues in most games (in my experience).
Ready action - occurs after trigger
Trigger: variable
The ready action can be difficult to adjudicate because it is up to the person readying the action what they want the trigger to be. What makes this especially tricky is that there are no real guidelines for how specific of a trigger you can set which leads to some confusion when it comes to, for example, the question of whether you can interrupt the casting of a spell with a readied action (also see this).
One thing is quite clear though, the readied action is always carried out after the triggering condition is met. No matter how clever the exact trigger is worded, the readied action can never precede the triggering condition.
Opportunity attack - interrupts trigger
Trigger: when a hostile creature that you can see moves out of your reach.
An opportunity is thus taken before an enemy's movement completes and thus interrupts the trigger. The enemy is free to continue moving after the resolution of the opportunity attack if they are able.
The DMG also explicitly says that the opportunity attack interrupts its trigger:
These are all the spells with a casting time of reaction that are currently published and a couple examples of non-spell reactions.
You don't have to look at this list though as long as you remember adjudicating every single one of these things can be done just by looking at the particular ability by following one simple rule: if a timing is listed or implied use that timing, and have the reaction resolve after the trigger for all the others.

At times, you may want to make the form unavailable and communicate the status to your users. You have two choices. You can take the form offline immediately, or you can take it offline automatically at a specified date and time. You can also edit the message that users see.
- In the Form Designer Toolbar choose Settings > Extensions > Form Availability. The Form Availability Settings window, appears.
- In the Status field, click Enable Availability Options. Three fields appear.
- In the Current Form Availability field, you can see the current status of your form. By default it is online. If the "Form is Offline" field is checked, it is offline. Note that changes are not visible in Preview mode. You must access it like a user to confirm the status.
- Optionally if you select "Offline at specified date", two mandatory fields appear. Click the calendar to choose a date, and select the time from a dropdown list.
- Optionally, in the Offline Message field click Launch Editor. The default message in a yellow box is "The Requested Form is Currently Offline and can not be accessed at this time". You can use the Text Editor to customize this message for your customers.

Use the Factory Method Pattern for Object Creation in Sitecore

This post is a continuation of a series of posts I'm putting together around using design patterns in Sitecore, and will show a "proof of concept" around using the Factory Method pattern — a creational pattern whereby client code obtain instances of objects without knowing the concrete class types of these objects. This pattern promotes loose coupling between objects being created and the client code that use them.
In this "proof of concept", I am using an Item Validator to call a factory method to obtain a "fields comparer" object to ascertain whether one field contains a value greater than a value in another field, and will show this for two different field types in Sitecore.
I first defined an interface for objects that will compare values in two Sitecore fields:
using Sitecore.Data.Fields;
namespace Sitecore.Sandbox.Data.Validators.ItemValidators.FieldComparers
{
 public interface IFieldsComparer
 {
 bool IsFieldOneLessThanOrEqualToFieldTwo(Field fieldOne, Field fieldTwo);
 }
}
Instances of classes that implement the IFieldsComparer interface above will ascertain whether the value in fieldOne is less than or equal to the value in fieldTwo.
I then defined a class that implements the IFieldsComparer interface to compare integer values in two fields:
using System;
using Sitecore.Data.Fields;
using Sitecore.Diagnostics;
namespace Sitecore.Sandbox.Data.Validators.ItemValidators.FieldComparers
{
 public class IntegerFieldsComparer : IFieldsComparer
 {
 public bool IsFieldOneLessThanOrEqualToFieldTwo(Field fieldOne, Field fieldTwo)
 {
 Assert.ArgumentNotNull(fieldOne, "fieldOne");
 Assert.ArgumentNotNull(fieldTwo, "fieldTwo");
 return ParseInteger(fieldOne) <= ParseInteger(fieldTwo);
 }
 protected virtual int ParseInteger(Field field)
 {
 int fieldValue;
 int.TryParse(field.Value, out fieldValue);
 return fieldValue;
 }
 }
}
There isn't much to see in the class above. The class parses the integer values in each field, and checks to see if the value in fieldOne is less than or equal to the value in fieldTwo.
Now, let's create a another class — one that compares DateTime values in two different fields:
using System;
using Sitecore.Data.Fields;
using Sitecore.Diagnostics;
namespace Sitecore.Sandbox.Data.Validators.ItemValidators.FieldComparers
{
 public class DateFieldsComparer : IFieldsComparer
 {
 public bool IsFieldOneLessThanOrEqualToFieldTwo(Field fieldOne, Field fieldTwo)
 {
 Assert.ArgumentNotNull(fieldOne, "fieldOne");
 Assert.ArgumentNotNull(fieldTwo, "fieldTwo");
 return ParseDateTime(fieldOne) <= ParseDateTime(fieldTwo);
 }
 protected virtual DateTime ParseDateTime(Field field)
 {
 return DateUtil.IsoDateToDateTime(field.Value);
 }
 }
}
Similarly to the IFieldsComparer class for integers, the class above parses the field values into DateTime instances, and ascertains whether the DateTime value in fieldOne occurs before or at the same time as the DateTime value in fieldTwo.
You might now be asking "Mike, what about other field types?" Well, I could have defined more IFieldsComparer classes for other fields but this post would go on and on, and we both don't want that 😉 So, to account for other field types, I've defined the following Null Object for fields that are not accounted for:
using Sitecore.Data.Fields;
namespace Sitecore.Sandbox.Data.Validators.ItemValidators.FieldComparers
{
 public class NullFieldsComparer : IFieldsComparer
 {
 public bool IsFieldOneLessThanOrEqualToFieldTwo(Field fieldOne, Field fieldTwo)
 {
 return true;
 }
 }
}
The Null Object class above just returns true without performing any comparison.
Now that we have "fields comparers", we need a Factory method. I've defined the following interface for objects that will create instances of our IFieldsComparer:
using Sitecore.Data.Fields;
namespace Sitecore.Sandbox.Data.Validators.ItemValidators.FieldComparers
{
 public interface IFieldsComparerFactory
 {
 IFieldsComparer GetFieldsComparer(Field fieldOne, Field fieldTwo);
 }
}
Instances of classes that implement the interface above will return the appropriate IFieldsComparer for comparing the two passed fields.
The following class implements the IFieldsComparerFactory interface above:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Xml;
using Sitecore.Configuration;
using Sitecore.Data.Fields;
using Sitecore.Diagnostics;
namespace Sitecore.Sandbox.Data.Validators.ItemValidators.FieldComparers
{
 public class FieldsComparerFactory : IFieldsComparerFactory
 {
 private static volatile IFieldsComparerFactory current;
 private static object locker = new Object();
 public static IFieldsComparerFactory Current
 {
 get
 {
 if (current == null)
 {
 lock (locker)
 {
 if (current == null)
 {
 current = CreateNewFieldsComparerFactory();
 }
 }
 }
 return current;
 }
 }
 private static IDictionary<string, XmlNode> FieldsComparersTypes { get; set; }
 private IFieldsComparer NullFieldsComparer { get; set; }
 static FieldsComparerFactory()
 {
 FieldsComparersTypes = new Dictionary<string, XmlNode>();
 }
 public IFieldsComparer GetFieldsComparer(Field fieldOne, Field fieldTwo)
 {
 Assert.IsNotNull(NullFieldsComparer, "NullFieldsComparer must be set in configuration!");
 if (!AreEqualIgnoreCase(fieldOne.Type, fieldTwo.Type) || !FieldsComparersTypes.ContainsKey(fieldOne.Type))
 {
 return NullFieldsComparer;
 }
 XmlNode configNode = FieldsComparersTypes[fieldOne.Type];
 if(configNode == null)
 {
 return NullFieldsComparer;
 }
 IFieldsComparer comparer = Factory.CreateObject(configNode, false) as IFieldsComparer;
 if (comparer == null)
 {
 return NullFieldsComparer;
 }
 return comparer;
 }
 private static bool AreEqualIgnoreCase(string stringOne, string stringTwo)
 {
 return string.Equals(stringOne, stringTwo, StringComparison.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase);
 }
 protected virtual void AddFieldsComparerConfigNode(XmlNode configNode)
 {
 if(configNode.Attributes["fieldType"] == null || string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(configNode.Attributes["fieldType"].Value))
 {
 return;
 }
 if (configNode.Attributes["type"] == null || string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(configNode.Attributes["type"].Value))
 {
 return;
 }
 FieldsComparersTypes[configNode.Attributes["fieldType"].Value] = configNode;
 }
 private static IFieldsComparerFactory CreateNewFieldsComparerFactory()
 {
 return Factory.CreateObject("factories/fieldsComparerFactory", true) as IFieldsComparerFactory;
 }
 }
}
The AddFieldsComparerConfigNode() method above is used by the Sitecore Configuration Factory to add configuration-defined Xml nodes that define field types and their IFieldsComparer — these are placed into the FieldsComparersTypes dictionary for later look-up and instantiation.
The GetFieldsComparer() factory method tries to figure out which IFieldsComparer to return from the FieldsComparersTypes dictionary. If an appropriate IFieldsComparer is found for the two fields, the method uses Sitecore.Configuration.Factory.CreateObject() — this is defined in Sitecore.Kernel.dll — to create the instance that is defined in the type attribute of the XmlNode that is stored in the FieldsComparersTypes dictionary.
If an appropriate IFieldsComparer cannot be determined for the passed fields, then the Null Object IFieldsComparer — this is injected into the NullFieldsComparer property via the Sitecore Configuration Factory — is returned.

Added Tilt pages. These can be used with the new "Tinted Sun" page to tilt the sun's trajectory through the sky.
Added a new "Tinted Sun" page. This page is meant to replace the default "Normal Sun" page, though you can keep both pages available. They are each just as likely to be chosen by the Mystcraft grammar filler. A Tinted Sun is very similar to a Normal Sun, but is accepts several more modifiers:
- Color pages can be used to color the sun.
- Size pages can be used to specify the size. It only accepts one page: mini, small, medium, large, and huge.
- Tilt pages can be used to tilt the sun's trajectory through the sky. There will still be a 180° angle between the rising and setting points, just like a Normal Sun. Mutilple tilt pages can be combined to make a custom tilt. "No Tilt" is equal to 0°, "Half Tilt" is equal to 45°, and "Full Tilt" is equal to 90°.

|Classification of Birds using FFT and Artificial Neural Networks
Fast Fourier Transform
|Proceedings of the Technical Sessions, Institute of Physics Sri Lanka, 28 (2012) 100-105
|The use of feed-forward artificial neural network to categorize a selected set of Sri Lankan bird species based on their vocalization is presented. The inputs to the neural network were frequencies of bird vocalizations where each vocalization was characterized by a frequency range. Out of the selected birds, only two birds showed peak frequency values below 1,000 Hz. The Sri Lanka Scaly Thrush has the maximum average peak frequency of 7,761 Hz and the Green Billed Coucal has the lowest of 334 Hz. The preliminary results show that the artificial neural network which was trained to classify individual birds based on their frequency features had an accuracy of greater than 90% for several bird types

No, it can not destroy a Wall of Force.
The description of Wall of Force states (emphasis mine):
Nothing can physically pass through the wall.
The term nothing implies that even a hole in the multiverse cannot pass through it. The Sphere of Annihilation:
[...] obliterates all matter it passes through and all matter that passes through it.
But a Wall of Force seems not to be made of matter at all, but by force (whatever it means, see for example the discussion here about force damage). The quoted part from the spell description provides the sole way to disintegrate the wall, i.e. using a Disintegrate spell. Moreover:
Anything else that touches the sphere but isn't wholly engulfed and obliterated by it takes 4d10 force damage.
Hence, the sphere can not destroy it but it would deal 4d10 force damage – but the Wall of Force is immune to all damage, and hence it does not take such damage even if the sphere touches it.
A DM can rule otherwise, reasonably.
A Sphere of Annihilation is a legendary item which may also affect artifacts, while Wall of Force is a 5th-level spell: a DM may state that a legendary item is so powerful that overcomes spells of such level and maybe of higher levels.
What if a Wall of Force is cast in the Sphere's space?
There is another issue about the interaction between the Wall of Force and the Sphere of Annihilation: what happens when the wall created by the spell appears in the sphere's space? The description of the spell mentions the case of creatures only:
If the wall cuts through a creature's space when it appears, the creature is pushed to one side of the wall (your choice which side).
It is not clear what happens in case of objects (see for example this Q&A How does Wall of Force interact with objects?). The DM has to make a ruling here:
- The sphere follows the rule for creatures, and hence is pushed on one side of the wall.
- The sphere is stuck in the wall. In this case another DM call is needed: they have to decide if the sphere can be moved again and what happens to the hole left in the Wall of Force, or if it is not possible to move it.
As a DM, in this particular case I would apply the first ruling, mainly to ease the game, since even if the sphere is on the other side of the Wall with respect to a creature, they can still control it, because the only requirement is to be within 60ft of the sphere.
